Indeed, I hate lazy sellers

I liked it, and it gave me a new perspective on ITAT

LPM + mint = Lovely board as well

Noooooooooooooooooooooo.............. I thought the first post was a joke, but now I look I can see it. Wow, just wow

Still clueless?

I don't have a clue who that is.....

Great player, doesn’t take himself seriously, I’d aspire to being either

A Rickenbacker

You can wait, but Tom Waits for no man

I wish they'd block the FS sections here

And they’re probably registered for tax in Bermuda

Multiply the interest on your 500 by several million per week and you can see why they’ve done it. Doesn’t make it right, and plenty of folks will choose to opt out on that basis. I have

Wow

No, but you should...,,,

Good post, I get the impression that the OP might be swapping a few easy to resolve problems for a set of less easy to solve challenges! Personally I'd stick with Mac and try other DAWs before reverting to Windows. Having used Windows since the early 90s, I swapped to Mac in 2011 and couldn't believe what I'd been missing all those years, in terms of music everything just worked. Had to use a Windows machine for a few weeks last year and found it an absolute nightmare. Horses for course is bottom line however

The Band weren't alone in producing moments of utter musical genius and shambolic disarray within years of each other (Jaco springs to mind), it all too often went with the territory in the 70's. I prefer to remember The Band for what they did at the top of their game. And The Band at the top of their game were good enough to be cited by many of the major musicians of that era as THE Band

I can see how you get there, some of their studio stuff is pretty average. But some of their stuff is extraordinary, and live they were something else (never saw them, speaking about their live recordings). There is an extraordinary joy and passion for life in a lot of their songs, and especially in their performances of those songs live, despite that fact that at first impression, the songs themselves can appear quite MOTR.

I'm with WoT, I've read several of the relevant books, and each comes at the same scenes with a different bias. Robertson had an agenda from the early days and was driven by a high level of ambition; Helm simply didn't share them, or at least not to the same degree (and you can see where he was coming from, post Hawkins he had to start playing second fiddle to Robertson, then third fiddle behind Robertson and Dylan, and this started a creeping resentment that never really went away). And whilst the truth is always going to be hard to come by, long-term use of hard drugs played a major role in the demise of the band as both a musical entity and a group of friends. Amazing documentary though, worth watching for the footage of Danko's playing style as much as anything else.

It is, but introduces a little more empathy re Levon’s POV. Great footage, Danko’s presence and Manuel’s voice both notable. Real sense of the magic of a moment in time

Yep

Loving it
